Why do you post here?
See, it's 1:55am, and I'm posting on General Discussions.
I'm just wondering WHY I'm doing this. I'm not really expanding my mind, I'm not learning anything significant (although you know that thing about the americans thinking haggis was an animal, that came up in a pub quiz. we didnt win though).
I mainly do it just because it's interesting... usually. And it burns time if I can't think of anything else to do.
Someone give me better excuses to while away my time on here please

Re: Why do you post here?
Yeah, but I'm sure you've posted at ungodly hours like me too.
I don't mean "why are you all posting here at this time", I mean "why do you post here at all" ?

Re: Why do you post here?
Habit, occasionally interesting, sense of responsibility, boredom, sleep patterns (as to the 2am bit) and the fact that people who I know and like post here and I'd probably lose contact with them if I stopped posting.

Re: Why do you post here?
I get paid for it and the fact that JonnyBGood and Habit who I know and like post here and I'd probably lose contact with them if I stopped posting. Plus I like kittens and puppies, not that it relevant in any way, but it's all good. Geez, you Ukers redundant!

Re: Why do you post here?
There are some smart people here, and it seems one of the few places I can type more than a few words without facing writers block.

Re: Why do you post here?
It's about 9:53 am, and I'm on an academic quarter (yes, a pause), and I've really got nothing else to do but stare at the foxy ladies wandering around and typing a few random posts.

It used to be so I could laugh at WarFalcon, I don't know why I stay here now.
There's Nod, I suppose.

Re: Why do you post here?
Help! I am actually a prisoner trapped in a war camp. I have secretly tapped into one of their communications lines but can only get access for limited periods of time. Please rescue me soon or I'm sure I will die. I have posted this many times before, why will no-one believe me?

We need a bit more info than that. What camp, where is it, who are your captors?

I do both . Starting Uni didn't stop me, nor did posting here stop me from going to Uni. How does it stop you?
